My iphone will not switch on unless I plug in to charge once I unplug it switches off again

My iphone 4 won't switch on unless I plug into charge - once I unplug it switches off again and is only charging upto 78% and not letting my option for WiFi either - any ideas?

Make an appointment at the genius bar. More than likely, either the battery needs to be replaced ($70) or the phone does ($199).

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • My iphone will not switch on

    my iphone will not switch on can some one help

    My phone did the same thing a few hours ago and I too went into panic mode.  I called and was told how to do the "hard reset" by holding down the on/off button and the home button.  That did enable me to get it turned on however now I cannot get it to stay connected to the cellular network.  It will connect for a few minutes but nothing consistent.  It has been extremely frustrating.  It seems to be a hardware issue (or maybe software since I did update to iOS 5) more so than a cellular provider issue.  Reason I say that is because I have not had any connectivity issues prior to this;  it was only after the whole phone shuts itself off that it started.
    Now, what the tech told me, and it made sense, was that I need to close all my open apps and turn the phone off more often than what I have been.  That will help clear out the temporary memory.  The phone might have just bogged down due to excessive memory usage and then shut itself off.

  • My Iphone 4 will not switch off silent .... Please help.

    I Updated My IPhone 4 on the 2nd of Jan 2013 and since then it will not switch off silent mode with the switch on the side of the phone , does any one know what i can do or if there is any other way to switch it off silent ?

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting, but it can clear some glitches.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, shown here:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If still not luck, you'll have to get it looked at by visiting an Apple Store or contact Apple to get it serviced:

  • My sons iphone will not come on unless plugged into wall charger. even then wont work

    my sons iphone will not come on unless plugged into the wall charger. even then when the screen finally comes on it has the wrong date and just says searching. wont do anything.

    What troubleshooting have you tried? Try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. If it does not, then you need to try and restore via iTunes. Try connecting the phone to the computer and iTunes and see if it is recognized. If not, you will have to force it into Recovery mode and restore. See this support document for that help. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • HT1296 my i phone 4s will not switch off and i,ve got apple sign and a bar underneath on screen and it seems to be frozen ,,any body no how to sort it out please

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Hi, My iPhone will not start up . I plugged it into my iMac and it cannot find it .

    Hi , My Iphone will not start up. when I plug it into my Imac , it cannot find my phone ?

    Suggestions:  1. make sure you have the lates version of iTunes; 2. try resetting your iPhone before syncing (
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears;  when you see the Apple logo let go of both buttons and your iPhone will reboot); 3. try using a different cable.

  • Iphone will not turn on unless plugged into outlet, and then says activation needed

    It worked fine before class, when I left class to check my phone, it wouln't turn on. If I plug it into the wall outlet and it shows the red battery indicating it has no charge, then goes to the apple logo screen for a few minutes before turning on and saying activation required. It was trying to make me go through the steps of activating it. If i unplug it, it will turn back off. It will not power up if I plug it into the computer, and it does not show up as a device on my computer. I have tried holding down the home and power button to reset it, and this does not work. I bought the phone when it first came out, Im trying to avoid taking it the the Apple store because it is 2 hours away.

    What troubleshooting have you tried? Try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. If it does not, then you need to try and restore via iTunes. Try connecting the phone to the computer and iTunes and see if it is recognized.

  • Z30 will not switch OFF!

    I have this error message displayed - www.bberror.com/bb10-0015 - on my Z30.
    So the screen is black (looks like it's off), but when i start the reload process in BB Link (with device connected), i get a message asking me to switch off the device. It will not turn off. If i hold the 'off' button down, it just starts up again and then displays the error message once more. What can i do?

    1. How do i find out which exact model my BB is? Because it will not switch on to let me go into settings etc.. As i say, although it won't switch off, it won't allow me in either - just get that error message.
    Remove the back cover. At the bottom behind that cover is a label with a lot of tiny print on it. In that print will somewhere be STA100-something...that "something" is what determines your exact Z30 model number.

    2. I cannot do a backup either because of above.
    Like insurance, the time to take a backup is before problems happen. It is a hard lesson to learn, but one should never allow an update to a computing device to begin unless one has a full and complete backup in hand. Further, a regular procedure of taking backups is always recommended so as to minimize the loss of data should a catastrophic failure happen.

    Finally, with the state i have described, will the autoloader run?
    I cannot predict the outcome of making the attempt. I can, of course, predict the outcome of never trying at all. You may have to experiment with timing of starting up your BB, connecting it to your PC, and launching the AutoLoader. Given the condition of your BB, you may have to try a few tricks with different timings of those actions. But AutoLoaders are pretty forceful...generally, if power is flowing through the BB at all and the display is doing anything at all, then the AutoLoader can attach to it and conduct it's process.
    Good luck!
